Oh dear. Bloober Team got away with remaking SH2 because all they had to do was not fuck up copy pasting the very compelling plot. SH1, meanwhile, was flawed. Cheesy. Convoluted. It needs a lot more filling out. There are so many more ways for this to go wrong. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsOm...
You are cheesy and convoluted!
That sounds like a complement. I wanna be called cheesy and convoluted.
I'm scared of how much they'll change the plot just to appease religious freaks
You shouldn't be, the Polish game dev community is mostly edgy teenagers rebelling against the Catholic upbringing and the conservative culture of their country. They even had a John Paul II joke in The Medium 😄 (but later removed it in a patch because it was very childish).
they already removed the goofy ways James could fall off ledges in sh2 so I have little faith for retaining Harry's ability to slam into walls at full speed ☹️
And they kind of did fuck up SH2, imo, just not as much as usual!
I'd have a little more confidence if I knew that the original team was involved. Not Ito, but the scenario people.
I hope they keep the camera angles of the beginning section at the very least
They didn't for SH2, why would they do it for SH1?
I get not keeping fixed camera angles for its entirety even though I feel it worked in its favour, but that section the way it was made was not only a technical achievement of the time, but also set up the tone wonderfully having that gone would be to me at least not understand what made it so good
Could be a chance to fix those flaws though. Nevertheless, I would be more interested in Silent Hill 3 remake and infinitely more interested in seeing Silent Hill 4: The Room get remade. I feel like that one got an unfair shake because it came out at the end of that generation.
Yeah, and I’d argue that everywhere they tried to be creative and add things they didn’t directly copy from SH2 they made it noticeably worse.
I'm sure that this will also get decent reviews from mainstream critics but people such as yourself and fans who understand and appreciate good Video game storytelling will be sorely disappointed
